Supernatural romance and shenanigans abound in Esprit D'Amour, a funny and even tragic romance directed by master filmmaker Ringo Lam! Alan Tam is Ming, a mousy insurance agent engaged to spitfire fiancee Ivy (Cecilia Yip). But when investigating the death of the young and pretty Siu Yu (Joyce Ni), Ming actually meets and falls in love with Siu Yu's spectral form! And who wouldn't? Siu Yu is a sweetheart ghost who wants her life insurance delivered to her beneficiary (a five year-old boy), and the charmed Ming is only too happy to go along. But falling in love with a ghost is sure to arouse some suspicion, and when the scheming Ivy catches on, Ming's ghost-man love affair may be in jeopardy!

Alternately sweet, romantic, and emotionally wrenching, Esprit D'Amour demonstrates Ringo Lam's unparalleled ability to put the screws to his audience - which he does here with pronounced, enthralling ease. A whirlwind movie encompassing romance, comedy, drama, and a touch of supernatural tragedy, Esprit D'Amour is wildly entertaining and compelling Hong Kong entertainment at its finest!

Koo, an insurance investigator, is sent to make enquiries regarding a case of accidental death. He is surprised to learn that the victim is the same ghost who has spoken to him the night before. Koo is fascinated in working on the case. One night, Yu's spirit appeared in Koo's apartment. Her beauty and pleasant personality intrigued Koo. They get involved into a romance between man and a spirit. Will Koo and Yu be reunited or will Yu remain, as always, Koo's esprit d'amour?
